winsletgg The Artist, The Descendents and The Help Lead The Golden Globe Nominations for 2012

The 69th annual Golden Globes nominees have been announced, and this year they’re big on definite articles. The Help, The Artist and The Descendents lead the pack of nominees. Which is interesting because â€" if the Globes have a weakness â€" it’s that they chase the famous names, and these noms aren’t that celeb-heavy. Then again, George Clooney has received three nominations directly (for actor, writing and directing) between The Ides of March and Descendents, and surely a fourth for producing March. Check out the full list…

If the Golden Globes’ status has fallen any in the last couple years, it’s only because Oscar prognostication has shown that the Globes have little effect on the big award of the season.  Still, everyone knows it’s going to be more fun because it’s drunker, looser, and not taken as seriously. Ricky Gervais will be hosting, so it’s going to be worth watching for that at least.

If this says anything about award season, it’s that The Artist and The Descendents are pretty much locks for best picture Oscar nominations. And probably also The Help. But for those looking to get a jump on their Oscar pools, always follow the SAG awards. Why? Because they have the largest voting block, and as goes the actors, so goes the majority of the awards. Of course their list came out yesterday and because they went early it’s possible many voters didn’t get a chance to see as much as they have now. But there are only so many contenders now.
